ABSTRACTPromotion and Health Education developed from Schools is one of the key tools of health interventions. Access to children and young people is almost complete because of the obligatory education.

In this context, the main objective of ESP is to develop activities and encourage the students to achieve the highest attainable standard of health, through the acquisition of knowledge and skills that promote choice and adoption of healthy lifestyles, seeking the participation, the interaction and social integration and the ability to work critically and creatively, and the search for solutions.

ABSTRACTSchools with families are socializing areas where it takes place the development of people in their early stages, exerting an important role in the configuration of behavior and social values of children and adolescents. When we consider the health as understood by the WHO, that is, as a state of complete physical, mental and social wellness and not only as the absence of disease we see that the attainment of good educational results by a school save a very close relationship with the attainment of optimal levels of health within the educational community. According to this fact schools that incorporate the health promotion as part of its educational are building the bases that will enable them better achieve the educational objectives, including academics. On the other hand in this time of life people are more receptive to learning being the time of the vital development which are acquired the major lifestyle that will be consolidated over the years (physical activity, diet, etc.). Also this is an area of social intervention that have health agents which have highly qualified from the pedagogical point of view: teachers, whether in the kindergarten level, and Primary and Secondary level. In this context the main objective of the Health Education, is to develop activities and encourage the students to achieve the highest attainable standard of health, through the acquisition of knowledge and skills that promote choice and adoption of healthy lifestyles; Seeking participation, interaction and social integration, and the ability to work critically and creatively, and the search for solutions. Schools, with the home are two of the key places where it takes place the individual and social development of people in its earliest stages, exerting an important role the configuration of the conduct and the social values of childhood, adolescence and youth.RESUMENLos centros educativos junto con el hogar, son los ámbitos socializadores clave donde tiene lugar el desarrollo de las personas en sus estadios más tempranos, ejerciendo un importante papel en la configuración de la conducta y los valores sociales de la infancia y la adolescencia. Cuando se considera la salud como la entiende la OMS, es decir, como un estado de completo bienestar físico, mental y social y no solamente como la ausencia de enfermedad, vemos que el logro de buenos resultados educativos por parte de un centro educativo guarda una relación muy estrecha con la consecución de unos niveles óptimos de salud en el seno de su comunidad educativa. De acuerdo con esta realidad, las escuelas que incorporan la promoción de la salud como parte integrante de su planteamiento educativo, están construyendo las bases que les permitirán alcanzar mejor los objetivos educativos, incluidos los académicos. Por otro lado, en esta época de la vida, las personas se hallan más receptivas para el aprendizaje, siendo la época del desarrollo vital en la que se adquieren los principales hábitos de vida que se consolidarán con los años (actividad física, alimentación, etc.).

Theoretical Overview

Across the globe, there can be confusion about the difference between the concepts of health education, health promotion and, often also, public health. This confusion does not limit itself to the individual terms but also to how these terms relate to each other. Some use terms such as health education and health promotion interchangeably; others see them clearly as different concepts. In this theoretical overview paper, we have first of all outlined our understanding of these individual terms. We suggest how the five principles of health promotion as outlined by the World Health Organization (WHO, 1984) fit into Tannahill’s (2009) model of three overlapping areas: (a) health education; (b) prevention of ill health; and (c) health protection. Our schematic overview places health education within health promotion and health promotion itself in the center of the overarching disciplines of education and public health. We hope our representation helps reduce confusion among all those interested in our discipline, including students, educators, journalists, practitioners, policymakers, politicians, and researchers.

<p class="Abstrak">Sektor kesehatan yang menjadi pilar utama  pemerintah Kabupaten Kudus diwujudkan dengan pengembangan sarana serta pelayanan kesehatan yang baik di masing – masing kecamatan. Dinas kesehatan memiliki tanggung jawab untuk melakukan upaya menjaga dan meningkatkan taraf kesehatan masyarakat, dengan dibantu tenaga kesehatan yang berada di puskesmas dan pustu di tiap kecamatan. Kondisi tingkat kesehatan masyarakat yang fluktuatif terjadi, karena dipengaruhi oleh tidak tepatnya sasaran masyarakat yang perlu dilakukan pemberdayaan, Dapat dikatakan promosi kesehatan ini masih belum dapat dikatakan efektif, karena belum adanya sistem yang bisa memrioritaskan masyarakat yang membutuhkan pemberdayaan dalam bentuk promosi dan penyuluhan kesehatan. Dalam penelitian ini metode yang digunakan adalah TOPSIS dan kriteria yang digunakan ada 4 yaitu KIA, Kesehatan Lingkungan, Gaya Hidup, dan Upaya Kesehatan masyarakat. Masing – masing kriteria memiliki jumlah indikator penilaian yang berbeda dimana KIA memiliki 4 indikator, Kesehatan lingkungan dan gaya hidup masing – masing 5 indikator, sedangkan upaya kesehatan masyarakat 2 indikator. Indikator penilaian ini sesuai dengan Peraturan Mentri Kesehatan Republik Indonesia No 2269/MENKES/PER/XI/2011.<strong> </strong>Metode TOPSIS digunakan karena mampu mencari alternatif optimal berdasarkan jarak ideal positif dan negatif. Dari hasil analisa Kritria PHBS (Prilaku Hidup Bersih dan Sehat) yang menjadi faktor penentu adalah pada kriteria Upaya kesehatan Masyarakat karena tahapan akhir dari kesadaran pentingnya kesehatan tidak hanya sampai individu saja, melainkan sudah berkembang sampai mendukung dan melakukan upaya kesehatan masyarakat.</p><p class="Abstrak"> </p><p class="Abstrak"><em><strong>Abstract</strong></em></p><p class="Abstract">The health sector which is the main pillar of the Kudus Regency government is realized by developing good health facilities and services in each sub-district. The health office has the responsibility to make efforts to maintain and improve the health of the community, with the help of health workers in the health center in each sub-district. Fluctuating public health conditions occur, because it is influenced by the inaccurate target of the community that needs to be empowered. It can be said that this health promotion still cannot be said to be effective, because there is no system that can prioritize people who need empowerment in the form of health promotion and counseling. In this study the method used is TOPSIS and the criteria used are 4, namely KIA, Environmental Health, Lifestyle, and Public Health Efforts. Each criterion has a number of different assessment indicators where KIA has 4 indicators, environmental health and lifestyle of each of the 5 indicators, while public health efforts are 2 indicators. The indicator of this assessment is in accordance with the Regulation of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia No 2269 / MENKES / PER / XI / 2011. The TOPSIS method is used because it is able to find optimal alternatives based on ideal positive and negative distances. From the results of the PHBS Critical (Clean and Healthy Lifestyle) analysis that are the determining factors are the criteria for Public Health Efforts because the final stages of awareness of the importance of health are not only for individuals, but have developed to support and make public health efforts.</p>

Background: The ability of families to care for avoidant restrictive food intake disorder children is still low. There is only few studies that examined relationship between family factor to ability to care children with avoidant restrictive food intake disorder. The purpose of this study was to identify the influence of socio-demographic factors on the ability of families to represent children with avoidant restrictive food intake disorder.Method: The study design was cross-sectional, and the majority of samples were gathered using the rule of the thumb, totaling 245 participants. The sampling technique used a type of multistage sampling. Data were collected by questionnaire. We then conducted an analysis of the univariate data using frequency distribution, while for the bivariate data, we used the chi-square technique. All of the data was processed using IBM SPSS 23.0 statistics.Results: The results showed that the ability of care from the families (health promotion behavior) of children with avoidant restrictive food intake disorder  was influenced by the socio-demographic factors, namely maternal age (p= 0.010), the number of children (p= 0.047) and education (p= 0.036).Conclusion: Young mothers need appropriate guidance and direction through good health education. Good health education in young mothers can reduce the pressure faced by the mothers when caring for their children with avoidant restrictive food intake disorder. Health promotion behavior is influenced by maternal education and maternal age. Through good mother's education, the mother will be able to provide a good pattern of care to children who experience avoidant restrictive food intake disorder.

Service Activity

The Covid-19 pandemic impacts increasing psychological problems (anxiety disorders, depression, and insomnia) in the community and health workers. People experience clinical anxiety, so they are afraid to check their health to health services when they experience symptoms of illness. The purpose of this community service is to increase the knowledge and attitudes of health workers in providing good health education to the community so that people understand health behaviour and can make decisions based on the information that has been obtained. This education was conducted online for 300 health workers (Indonesian Radiographers/PARI), with the media zoom meeting. The implementation of this education begins with a pre-test, implementation of education, questions and answers, then a post-test. The results of the pre-test before the implementation of health education obtained a mean value of 36.50, a median of 30, and a standard deviation of 17,060, while the post-test results after the implementation of health education obtained a mean value of 93.00, a median of 100, and a standard deviation of 10.773. There is an increase in the knowledge of health education participants between before and after the health education is given. Recommendations from this community service activity are expected that health workers can continue to provide good health education to the community. The level of anxiety and stigma against Covid-19 decreases, and people feel calm and safe to check their health.

A synthesis of theory, research, and practice shows that education is linked to better health through individuals’ increased health knowledge and healthy behaviour. Health literacy is put forward as the central mediator between education and health. Scientific studies have shown a strong association between the levels of health literacy and health outcomes. The aim of the study is to identify the levels of health literacy on health promotion among Lithuania’s young adults. The anonymous self-reported questionnaire survey was carried out in the period of 2014-2015. The research sample involved 842 young adults aged 18-29. Health literacy was measured using an HLS-EU-Q-47 questionnaire. The research studies suggest that less than half of Lithuanian young adults have sufficient or excellent health literacy on health promotion, which is essential in maintaining good health and the quality of life. These findings are important evidence that health education should become a priority area at all levels of educational process at every stage of the life: from childhood through adulthood.
